Wow - 8 players per 5-in-line team, that's a lot of players for 1 team. (Runs off and see's who's 5-in-line team needs a players)

BBW's Team Tournament Suggestions:

1) Another Gammon tournament (Nack, Race, or Crowded)

2) Spider Line4

3) Even though it's new, I'm sure there could easly be 5 teams of 5 players - Battleboats Plus (There are probable already enough regular Battleboat teams, but I know for myself, and probable others - I would much rather play the PLUS version then the regular version.)

18. Luglio 2004, 19:58:12

18. Luglio 2004, 19:57:24

You only get the brains when a friend pays, If they refer to you when paying AND if you are already a paid member yourself

Id suggest taking this to gen chat before Bumble gets all in a madmonkey at us for off topic LOL

This is the page that answers that.
Brains

A quick scan of the site will answer 90% of your questions.

18. Luglio 2004, 18:58:44

No added bonus to have your friends join up to the site if that is what you were meaning Derek. No discounts either on signing up more then one person. If that isnt what you mean rephrase it an we will try to help explain anything you want to know about that site.

18. Luglio 2004, 18:45:03

I understand it cost mony to get a paid membership for six months but I dont get what happens when you have friends sign up to.

18. Luglio 2004, 18:41:58

You need to get a paid membership to join a fellowship, then you can join a team.

So yes it costs money

18. Luglio 2004, 18:40:47

I just joined a couple days ago and I have had a few questions about the site

18. Luglio 2004, 15:51:31

loop chess or chess gets my vote,thouh I'd prefer gothic...but not alot of players just yet.

18. Luglio 2004, 13:57:00

rod03801

spider line 4!!! or halma.. or anti reversi!.. lol.. (but I doubt halma or anti reversi would get a lot of people..)

18. Luglio 2004, 13:49:31

Okay, we have a running tournament in backgammon and a new tournament to sign up in five in line.
What else? Which other game would have a support in as many teams as possible? Chess, maybe?

18. Luglio 2004, 13:14:43

It's common sense that if you roll dice to see who starts, neither colour has an advantage.

18. Luglio 2004, 12:59:34

bumble

I meant Game Rules - backgammon of course!

18. Luglio 2004, 12:58:31

bumble

According to the stats on Play This Game - backgammon, white has about a 1% advantage.

18. Luglio 2004, 12:56:27

I am not a backgammon expert so when I say it doesn't matter, I don't guarantee it's true :-) It's just my opinion.

18. Luglio 2004, 12:53:44

Im glad you said that,
Ive had this discusiion before when Ive said that in Backgammon with the die deciding who starts, it doesnt matter wjat colour you are. So only one games needed in tournies.

BUT when ive said this, Ive been shouted down from all directions saying it does matter.

Now the boss has spoken, maybe they will believe me LOL

18. Luglio 2004, 12:51:51

It depends. I am white in two and black in three games. But the system of colours will be improved, I didn't pay much attention to it in this case of backgammon.

18. Luglio 2004, 12:48:16

Its a good job its backgammon and not some of the other games,

I am black in all my games

18. Luglio 2004, 12:44:53

Thanks bumble :-) Now I can take some sleep.

18. Luglio 2004, 12:41:24

bumble

Wow! Impressive! Nice work, Fencer. :o)

18. Luglio 2004, 12:38:29

The first team tournament has been started.

18. Luglio 2004, 07:39:41

seems to me,its just one win...I use this feature to play friends who I play regularly,and it doesnt seem to affect our bkr's very much at all.

18. Luglio 2004, 07:35:51

Czuch

bwild.. is the bkr affected the same as if you won one game?, or does it take into account that you won 5 or any losses?

18. Luglio 2004, 07:30:50

5 wins=1 match=1 bkr score.

Argomento: Team tourney...

There are many people, almost 100, and even at 3 days, it could last a real long time. Are vacations and weekends akkowed? Wha happens if someones membership lapses? Or if they just leave the site after a year, or whenever? Should we allow substitutes or something? I know aregular tournament is one thing, if you want to resign or time out for whatever reason, but how will that affect the rest of the team. I can envision playing for a year or something, and then have a teammate not be able to play for whatever reason....I am wondering if this aspect has been thought about?

18. Luglio 2004, 07:24:13

Czuch

In a 5 wins match contest, how is each game scored for bkr purposes? Is it like one win after you win all 5 games or what?

18. Luglio 2004, 06:57:58

you bet Antje, I am excited! hope it don't delay again.
